Drace Aezal, Cartographer of the Deep

Born and raise in a Merchant Guild in Caeld, Drace grew up in a town bustling with trade of all kinds, being that it was situated on the ocean and was the meeting place of several major roads. His father taught him that to be a good Merchant, you had to have an even better relationship with your clients and customers. As his Father always reminded him, "Courtesy pays."

When Drace was old enough, at the age of 16 he launched a small vessel heading towards uncharted waters, wanting to establish trade in the unknown, then eventually linking it back home. With him came the childhood pet of his, Belial, who was a rare creature indeed. Belial was purchased at a young age from a foreign trader, the same trader who gave information as to the land of unknown and its whereabouts. Eager to discover more interesting creatures, his first step on the island brought a sense of belonging. Here Drace would make his home.

Drace, through a stakeout concerning the odd behavior of the Orcs, stumbled upon a few women who were extremely kind, Eva, Pepper, and Heidi of the Salty Angels, and through them meeting the N.E.A. and became friends with Red who often visited the Angels.

Drace found a place in the Salty Angels and quickly became proficient in taming creatures and breeding. After a success with taming a Squid creature with the help of Nia of Honkers, Drace quickly put the creature to good use, taming the Terror of the Deep, a Mosasaur, and discovered that he truly felt at home when conquering the deep ocean. Thus leading him to train his breathing abnormally.

With his trusty Squid, Camilla, and the powerful terror of the deep, Scylla, Drace now frequents the deep ocean, learning its ins and outs, dangers and rewards. Then wishes to pass on this information he learns to the islands inhabitants after learning of a teaching program in Blackwater.
